When new people first visit my country, here in Comoros, the best places to show them are the market wherein he could find anything he may need. Then near the market, there is a good patisserie which makes acceptable pastries and the best bread of the whole country. All the others good places to visit are in far from the city center, in countrysides provided that it is still a wild island. We ll take the bus or hire a car to go watching the best sunsets at the beaches or up to the hills, where it freezes all the time. Finally, we could make a round tour all over the others islands made up my beautiful country.
